🚨 UPDATE:

A group of 29 U.S. lawmakers is calling on Congress to permanently ban a central bank digital currency (CBDC) in the United States. They argue that the current proposal only postpones its development until 2031, rather than stopping it completely.

According to the lawmakers, a CBDC could potentially open the door to financial surveillance and expand the Federal Reserve’s control over citizens’ money, raising serious concerns about privacy and financial freedom.
